The Mountains of northwestern North Carolina has a variable weather pattern depending on the elevation. Temperatures usually run 10 to 25 degrees cooler in the higher elevations than in the valleys below. Spring has mild days and cool nights with some rainy days. Summer is warm and humid with scattered afternoon thunderstorms. Temperatures rarely rise above 90 degrees in this region (or above 80 at elevations of 5,000 feet or higher.) Conditions begin to cool down by October, and this is also the best month to view the spectacular fall foliage. In winter, the high mountains protect the outlying areas, so there is seldom a major snowfall. Highs run in the 40s and 50s. Although snow in winter is likely, most ski resorts rely on snowmaking equipment because daytime highs can often hover in the 40-degree range.
